-- About Ark: Survival Evolved --
As a man or woman stranded naked, freezing and starving on the shores of a mysterious island called ARK, you must hunt, harvest resources, craft items, grow crops, research technologies, and build shelters to withstand the elements. Use your cunning and resources to kill or tame the leviathan dinosaurs and other primeval creatures roaming the land, and team up with or prey on hundreds of other players to survive, dominate... and escape!
-- Some Features Include: --
Tame, Train & Ride Dinosaurs, in a Living Ecosystem.
Food, Water, Temperature and Weather.
Harvest, Build Structures, Paint Items.
Plant, Farm & Grow.
Summon the Ultimate Life Forms.
I've only been playing a week. Built this raft and tamed my first Rex the next night. Thanks man.
Just make sure any beds or boxes or whatnot you put on the boat go in the little shed or they get destroyed, even on the roof.
Mark Werenczuk you still playing?
Definite thumbs up. Thanks for the info, even almost 3 years later :D
You could put the ramp on the other side and take some extra time when "parking" the raft to make sure that the back is clipped onto ground, that way you won't have to worry about anything you taming getting stuck on the ground when you travel away.
I had no idea about the pillar thing though, that's incredibly neat!
+Dojan5 That's an awesome idea, I'll definitely do a video on that
a tip for getting the very first foundation on and centered is to:
get a pillar in you hot bar,
mount the raft,
select the pillar while still mounted,
then just looking up and down you can place the pillar and it's 100% centered,
after that you will have a snap point for a foundation next to the pillar,
then delete the pillar and place a second foundation in its place.
Boom, you have a perfectly aligned and centered foundation to start off your build.
I then use the pillar trick to sink down the foundations so they sit just below the wooden base of the raft.
and after that I use the pillar ceiling trick to extend out my floor.
much easier way of centering the first foundation and also the method I use.
+kingnellis13 that's what I do
kingnellis13 if
I tried that and its harder to tell where the center is when mounted
Just made this raft and its epic. Caught and tamed soooo many dinos. Thanks
Lmfao I subbed cuz I liked how he was driving a dead Rex around
+SoloManhuntsNoJoke 😂😂
Thank you so much Timmy! I like to use rafts in ARK because you have a moveable base with all stuff you need, but i had not an good idea for a taming raft, so thank you:D
Love how you go through all the work to get a Rex just to cap it in the head 😂
Tate Crago lol
"if this would stop spazzing out" exactly what I was thinking. I like how casual and real your vids are compared to others. Subbed
Best raft tut. In my opinion! Simple and straight to the point 😆👌🏼
For the missing router foundation. Use a pillar next to it and sink the foundation over the router one lower you can click drive through the foundation.
Yaaay, there it is! Good to see the difference why you start with a pillar. The time you save lowering the foundation is awesome. Also good to see the size difference of the two rafts with the foundations on them. Jumping into the water was too dangerous for me when I built my taming raft so I just placed the foundations underneath the thatch ceilings while standing on it. Good that you mentioned not to build when you are too close to the beach. Happened to me and I was wondering why it won't work. Very nice tipps. People can now get some awesome tames with their rafts. Thanks for doing that video.
+Zoa Live Thanks Jenny and thank you for the idea of doing this video 😉 I'm glad it was helpful
GOOD VIDEO MAN. IM RUNNING HOME FROM WORK TO BUILD A TAMING RAFT. 1.5X EXP EVENT!!!!
Very nice video! Do you plan on doing one for Argies? I'd like to see a video on that. I mean obviously with a little imagination it wouldn't be hard to convert this one into one for an argy, but I like seeing it first. XD
Agreed! Although i think hes already done this actually. i cant remember the playlist it was on, but he made one with a gate at the end and pillars all around so a ptera could fly through but the argy would get stuck. Pretty neat.
+Everdyne Yeah I can do that, and someone else suggested I do one with the ramp on the back to make it easier to escape without glitching the dino on the terrain. I'll do a variation video.
Awesome Timmy!
It often just knowing what will, and this will sound bad, fit in what hole. The argy is especially easy, but I shan't spoil the prospect of a nice vid about it
If you select the pillar, then press drive, the pillar automatically centers perfectly. DON'T WAST TIME AND RESOURCES TRYING TO GET IT STRAIGHT!
Drive? what butto is it?
You can put a Stone foundation in the raft’s lever if you get the level down only for that tile with the same pillar technique you did before, you’ll be able to drive it, I just did that in the official server and it worked! And the raft won’t be vulnerable...
Timmy a good idea would be to give a resource list in the description or video before you get to building so people can follow step by step without pausing to gather resources.
+Clayton Sanders Yeah that would've been very useful for this video. Thanks for the idea
No problem man, great videos btw.
+Clayton Sanders Cheers, I appreciate that
I have been trying to find the best raft design and this is the best yet it really works
+Ballistic Gamers Thanks mate, I'm glad you like it =)
At the point where you don't put a foundation over the rudder just put a pillar next to it and drop a foundation one snap point down on the rudder area. Fully protected, can still drive from underneath i think too.
Use 3 pillars around drive shaft to make finding the lower snap point easier to fit foundation instead of using trap door to save tiles.
Either I'm doing something wrong, or they changed the size of the raft since this video was made. I'm starting at the same exact position... But no matter what I do, the foundations don't line up the same way. Instead of stopping right before the steering column, the foundation overlaps it so it's only got about 1/16th of a foundation over the water towards the rear... Any suggestions? Or should I just give up on being able to go up through the trap door, since it'll be completely blocked by the raft.
Isn't there a limit on how many peices you can place on it? Also, do foundations still snap below ceilings
wolfy297 they do
Man soundtrack is great
I did another taming boat, but it was stuck evertime a rex was on my boat. Some sort of glitch I guess. Would it be possible to build your boat but instead of putting walls on the sides, putting some dino gateways to be able to transport a tamed rex? And still be able to transport a rex during taming?
You found some music then? Top notch background widdling
Did some update fix this? I've built this raft several times before, the last time just a few months ago, but now I get the foundations sunk about 3 times and the 4th time, i can see the green outline at the lower snap point, but when it materializes, it always stays level with the previously placed foundation, not at the lower snap point that the green outline clearly showed. It's driving me bonkers! Been trying to get it to snap right for an hour now. I would just stop trying but it needs to be one or two points lower to encase the raft completely. This is why I wonder if they "patched" this as a "bug".
The ceiling, foundation trick doesn't seem to be working for me. Has this been patched out?
Love this video! I'm telling my partner what to do and he's doing it! And it's easy, thanks
+Viickii Campbell No worries Viickii, glad to help =)
You only need to place pillars because they lower themselves if you look downwards each time you place them next to eachother so its cheaper in recourses.
i found u can only do ceiling and foundation on boats is there a tip for putting floating foundations on land structures?
How big should the raft taming pen for a bronto be? Is 2x2 enough here too?
you cannot tame a Bronto on a raft...no dino that can carry a platform saddle, Bronto, Paracer, diplo, can even be carried by a raft. You can shoot the Bronto from the raft, but he physically cannot set foot on-board, Giga's cannot either (although that one i have not tried myself, as i don't have a metal raft)
1:10 fuckin killed me lmao
I like your design, would probably have a mobile base on the back so I can have preserving bins and storage for narcotics.
Anything you dont have inside the driving area gets destroyed eventually
Is this within the 75 block build limit
Finally :D I was too fucking stupid to place the foundations! Thank you! Gonna try it tomorrow :)
+herzlein420 No worries Herzlein, I'm glad it helped you =)
Does this build work for spinos? As I swear they are able to get out of taming pens a lot more easily than a Rex can. It seems like I need to have it 3 high sometimes and if I have a ramp too close to those was it appears that they step up through the wall onto the ramp and run out.
+mleii1169 Yeah I agree with you, the spinos seem to be able to glitch they're way over 2 high walls. I'll have a play around and try to come up with a design for you.
I counted something about 88-89 elements.
Do you've got a mod for the raft? Because the normal rafts have this banner at the front and I don't find any other that looks like that one you're building on..
Or am I just stupid? lol
Ok I got it.. ^^
U just gotta hold e and "hide the sail"
+Jonas Stasun Just hold "e" on the rudder and select "hide sail"
if you were to build this out of metal, would it be possible to lure and tame a giga? I'm assuming you'd need 3 long for him to not just walk over the top?
+Josh Cauchi I think it would need to be 4 walls high so he doesn't step over the walls and so the ramp would extend out 4 tiles as well which severely limits your space. But the real problem would be how the giga interacts with the raft because gigas can't stand on rafts, they just slide off like quetzals do. It might just glitch through the walls if that's the case.
TimmyCarbine Gaming Thanks for that, shame, but for all else this looks like it would work perfectly!
just lower the foundation at the raft and you can still drive it
Yeah that is what I would have done. Just lower it on the one spot. However it is kind of cool that he can reach the rudder from under water. Probably a decent feature if you're building an underwater taming cage.
Being able to reach the rudder underwater is a lifesaver. I've rescued myself countless times by using the rudder after I've fallen off the boat while under attack; especially at night since the word "raft" glows and it centered on the rudder.
What? No submarine version showing how to trap/tame a plesi? Oh, how you drag us along Mr. Timmy.
+Pew Heretic all in good time Mr. Heretic 😉
Wich Dinos aren tamable by this Raft ? (not because of size more because of structure damage)
Will this work with a therizinosaurus? (With stone structures) Will I have to use metal structures for a therizinosaurus?
+Brandon Rearden Therizinos can damage stone, but the amount of damage they do to it is pitiful. I'm sure you vould knock it out well before the pen shows any significant signs of damage
TimmyCarbine Gaming Ok, thank you
I'd the very same built using the trapdoor to acess the raft, but somehow I can only navigate it from the bottom, diving. I tried to open the upper trapdoor but I can't get to take control from above. I'm pretty sure my building is aligned.
Thank you!! That's very helpful :)
+Fritha Keith No worries =)
will this build work on a official server ? or no ?
Boo hoo
Yes it will work on official server. All the building methods work and the part list is under the raft maximum. I built one and tamed a Rex no problem.
My foundations aren't getting any lower with the pillar trick, and I'm just wasting a ton of resources. Did they fix this or something?
nope should work, sometimes placing the foundation at the lower snap point is a sod, try crouching, but the snap point is there.
Is that the Center map? looked very different
+The Lost Frost This map is called The Volcano
TimmyCarbine Gaming if only it was on Xbox :(
Video made me sub
Nice raft!!👍🏼
So I made this raft but the rex walked right over the 2 high wall. Answers??
For the initial lowering of the foundations/pillars, can you use thatch/wood to save resources? since they are going to be demolished anyway?
+superspecky4eyes Yeah you can use definitely use thatch/wood for the inital lowering to save resources
Great. I got this built last night and me and my buddy are gonna take it out tonight and try and tame a rex.
We had a few failed attempts with the Rex escaping but we finally had success by making the walls three high instead of two. I'm not sure what was happening but the rex just seemed to step straight over the trap instead of falling in when it was two high. Buggy game is buggy I guess. Anyway we now have a sweet level 65 T. Rex! Cheers!
+superspecky4eyes That's awesome! I'm not sure how he got out of a 2 high wall though if there was nothing for him to step on to get a boost. Glad it worked out for you though 😉
I think he walked across the side walls somehow, even though he didn't really look anywhere near them.
Timmy don't you EVER sleep? Don't get me wrong I really appreciate the content you push out, but wow, where do you find the time, the energy, and the resources to do all this? Lol
+Madcap Magician Haha I do sleep, probably not enough though. I will have to have a break over the weekend so I can bulk record some more vids for you guys. Thanks mate!
TimmyCarbine Gaming, I need you to take a break to give me a chance to build all the cool stuff you have shown me, but you only have permission for 2 days off!
I can't place the bottom left sloped roof. It just says... Can't Place Sloped Stone Roof: This Structure is too far away from the platform! But I'm sure I built it the exact same way you did.
i like your taming methods. '-'
They can't fight back if they're dead
Will the Rex break through stone Dino gates and the door it goes to?
hi no
Cool : go on , like your vids . Volcano map is so nice ! CU ;-)
Does the placing a foundation under the ceiling still work I thought they patched it
+Scale Fire It does still work. They did patch it a while ago but for some reason it works again now
My friends put me in the ocean to die, this is revenge! They left my dino/ fav raptor behind and killed it! Thank you bro >:)
Would this work for a spino or giganotosaur
+Jake Whitehead Check out my Adv Taming raft video for the Spino, as for the Giga, unfortunately it will just glitch through the raft. They can't go on rafts at all, you would need to use the metal dino gate method to trap a giga, but only on land
Did this pass the 80 something raft limit?
No. It's about 4 or 5 under the limit
you tamed that Rex perfectly 😂😂😂
+Gaming with Kev 😂😂😂 cheers mate
Can someone tell me what weapon is he using to re-add the building to his inventory? I am triying to look for it but it seems to not exist, can someone help me please
It’s a mod
I've been having trouble lowering S+ foundations, is that actually possible?
+Binidj It is still possible, but you need to use vanilla pillars to do it.
Same tbh. it seems like they sit on top of the foundation instead of going through it like that to create the new snap point.
I use vanilla pillars to do the lowering and then use S+ for the actual build.
I had no idea you could use the s+ gun to demo vanilla pieces
yes, this aspect of the demo gun is a godsend..as long as you lead your targets lol.
on the third row it will only let me place two foundations, is there something i did wrong?
+lewis rogers You might be too close to shore and the ground might be interfering with it, try moving into deeper water and see if it will let you then
build a gate in so you dont have to destroy a wall to get him out
+Jan PunkerXD Dammit, I forgot to mention that
Yep, hes done this on the other rafts hes made on the lets play series.
+TimmyCarbine Gaming yep that's why i did mention it :)
How do u fit a spino into that it would just walk out
that was amazing! 54K views and only 700 Likes?! WTF! you deserve more man. I'll leave mine. thx!
How would you get him out?
prob just demolish a wall although i guess you could just put in a gate
+Daniel Pridemore yeah a gate is the way to go. It would also cut down on the amount of structures you have on the raft as well. Double win
TimmyCarbine Gaming Thanks!
You cant fit a rex thru a dino gate remember?
Just break the door frames. It takes like 3 minutes to gather the mats and rebuild.
Will this stop the whale damaging your boat too
DOOM SPIKE Nothing can stop it i think, thats Why i don’t play official so i can disable that boatsinker
thank, easy perfect tame rex
that gun
does this still work I cannot seem to get the foundations to snap to the celings
I tried today and whenever I try to snap a foundation to the ceilings, it says that it is obstructed.
Also how do you get the rex out
every time I comment I cant wait for ur response xDD
+darknight025 Everytime I upload I can't wait for your comment xD
TimmyCarbine Gaming haha glad to hear ^^
Awesome video will you play Conan Exiles
+Clutch Gaming I would like to try it, it looks pretty cool (well the building system does anyway)
@@TimmyCarbine the building system and the combat system are really good in Conan. The building system is actually way better than ARK. Everything else gets boring though; especially since you can't transfer your characters to other servers and there is only one map.
im not getting the foundations lower...why?
I cant go down with foundations, whyy???
Ya know just knock em out and tame him up *shoots the Rex in the face* xD im dead lmao
how come I can't place a foundation on the second row??
+Natalia Ibanez They might have patched it, I'm getting a lot of people saying they can't do it anymore, I'll check it out when I get home
TimmyCarbine Gaming did they patch it?
would this work for a Spino
+Queen Jellyfish Nah, Spinos will just walk over it. See my Advanced Raft Build for a Spino taming pen
cheers
woowww thxxxx allootttt
Spino too ?!
I can’t get mine to add to the front
I have done it it was easy
I can only place 2 forward? I need help
How do you get a raft without a sail?
+Shadowblade 79er Hold down "E" while looking at the drivers position and it will bring up an option to "hide the sail"
I may be wrong here....but doesn't this raft exceed the structure limit on rafts of 80? Also, how in the world do you use a pistol to demolish things?! I take it you're using mods just for the purpose of the video?
Im not sure about the structure limit, but the demo gun is from the S+ Structures mod c:
+scorpiomatt6 Structure limit is 88 on official. The pistol is from the Structutes Plus mod. It just made it a bit quicker for tutorial purposes. Cheers mate
Cheers for the reply bro. Wicked raft by the way, do you have one for taming argies? They are a piss nuisance to tame solo!
What was your total build structure count in making this? I'd like to make one on official servers with no mods. I've made a few already and they all work well but I like your design.
+scorpiomatt6 I do have one for Argies, it is a few videos after this one called "advanced taming rafts". I agree they are a nightmare to solo tame with that flee mechanic. The raft makes it supper easy and safe
What gun and ammo please
Same question
its an s+ thing but i cant remember which one
Dan Buss
MOD: s+
GUN: demo gun
Fucking awesome
+OVO Nas Cheers mate!
It doesn't let me put foundations under the thatch ceilings
+Th3tickl3r Carroll Hmmm maybe you are too close to shore? Try moving to deeper water
I don't think thatch foundations will work if you were using them
Built one yesterday and caught my T. rex. Only issue I had was got stuck in the water and could never drive it
+Mitchell Dane I've heard of a couple of people having that issue, I haven't encounted it yet so I can't really comment on it
Or lower the foundation over the rudder one more level down.....
can you do a séries whit the New map
+Rodrigo Carita I like that idea, would be fun to explore a new map.
👍
Damnit cant get the last corner on that third row
I was building this and a ichtyornis came and ate my canteen ._.
Good turorial, but that Rex is dead :D
i cant snap foundations on ceilings
+beast mode beats The devs just patched it out in the last update. However if you are playing on your own server, there is a config setting to allow extending rafts again
you didnt go low enough, you can cover the whole raft with stone
He did cover the whole raft with stone. I built the same raft exactly and it's all covered.
